Just stories. A novel set in a small East German town. By Ingo Schulze. Translated by Elísa Björg Þorsteinsdóttir.
East Germany around 1990. The unification of the German states has become a reality, but instead of anticipation and relief, the longing for the past becomes more pressing than people would have believed. The old system is gone and it is difficult to find a foothold in a new world. An unpretentious story about people suffering from lack of change and uncertainty, people in a tireless search for security and love without ever realizing it in their search for happiness, funny and ironic at the same time. Bara Sögur has in a very short time brought its author international fame and has been translated into numerous languages.
